2  UNITED    STATES    BOARD    ON    GEOGKAPHIC    NAMES. 

The  President  op  the  United  States: 

Sir  :  The  United  States  Board  on  Geographic  ISTames,  constituted 
under  the  executive  order  of  September  4,  1890,  has  the  honor  to  sub- 
mit to  you  herewith  its  first  report : 

ORIGIN   AND   HISTORY. 

Th6*ncci&ssitj\|o^  ji-^eayd  for  inducing  uniform  usage  and  spelling  of 
geographic  names  i*n''the'J)uJ]>licatious  of  the  Government  has  long  been 
appareigit.:  •':;'•.'*!:     *.  /'.  *  *! 

Th^e^'^re'^'everkl  biirtgarus'and  departments  engaged  in  the  construc- 
tion of  maps  and  charts,  and  the  publication  and  dissemination  of 
geographic  information.  Prominent  among  them  are  the  Coast  and 
Geodetic  Survey,  which  is  making  charts  of  the  coasts  of  the  United 
States,  the  Hydrographic  Office  of  the  Navy  Department,  from  which 
emanate  charts  of  foreign  coasts,  the  Geological  Survey,  which  is  mak- 
ing a  mother  map  of  the  United  States,  the  General  Land  Office,  which 
compiles  from  its  plats  maps  of  most  of  the  States  and  Territories,  the 
Post-Office  Department,  which  decides  the  names  of  all  post-offices, 
etc.  Besides  these  there  is  scarcely  a  bureau  of  the  General  Govern- 
ment which  does  not  have  occasion  in  its  reports  and  other  paj)ers  to 
use  geographic  names,  to  a  greater  or  less  extent. 

It  is  well  known  that  there  have  existed  among  these  bureaus  differ- 
ences of  usage  concerning  geographic  names.  Indeed,  even  among 
different  publications  of  the  same  bureau,  usage  has  not  been  uniform. 
It  has  frequently  occurred  that  the  same  bureau  has  used  different 
forms  at  different  times  and  in  different  publications.  In  the  winter  of 
1889  and  1890  this  matter  became  a  subject  of  conference  among  a  few 
of  those  most  deeply  interested,  and  it  was  decided  to  attemi)t  the 
removal  of  a  serious  and  growing  evil  in  the  publications  of  the  Gov- 
ernment. With  this  purpose  in  view,  a  voluntary  association  of  repre- 
sentatives of  some  of  the  bureaus  interested  was  formed  early  in  the 
spring  for  the  purpose  of  considering  and  deciding  upon  the  proper 
names  or  the  spelhng  to  be  adopted  in  such  cases  as  should  be  brought 
before  it,  and  thus  gradually  to  bring  about  uniff)rniity  in  the  publica- 
tions of  the  bureaus  represented  in  respect  to  geographic  names. 

There  were  represented  in  this  association  the  Coast  and  Geodetic 
Survey,  the  Hydrographic  Office,  the  Geological  Survey,  the  Light- 
House  Board,  the  Smithsonian  Institution,  the  Departments  of  State 
and  War,  and  the  Post-Office  Department. 

After  several  meetings,  in  which  much  was  done  in  the  way  of  de- 
termining methods  of  procedure  and  adopting  general  principles  for 
guidance,  as  well  as  the  consideration  and  decision  of  more  than  a  hun- 
dred cases,  it  was  recognized  that  the  importance  of  the  work  of  the 
association  and  the  difficulties  of  an  administrative  character  which 
might  be  anticipated,  required  that  its  organization  should  be  strength- 
ened. Under  these  circumstances  executive  authority  could  alone  se- 
cure adoption  in  all  Government  publications  of  the  decisions  of  the 
association.  The  matter  was  therefore  brought  to  your  attention  and 
the  association  was  clothed  ^vith  the  necessary  authority  by  the  following 

EXECUTIVE    OKDEU. 

As  it  is  desirable  that  uuiform  usage  in  regard  to  geographic  nomenclature  and 
orthography  obtain  throughout  the  Executive  Departments  of  the  Government,  and 
particularly  upon  the  maps  and  charts  issued  by  the  various  Departments  and  bu- 
reaus, I  hereby  constitute  a  Board  on  Geographic  Names,  and  designate  tlie  follnwing

Washington,  D.  C,  adopted  November  4,  1890. 

Uuder  these  by-laws  the  Board  was  organized  with  Prof.  T.  C.  Meii- 
denhall  as  chairman,  as  pro^dded  for  in  the  Execntive  order,  the  elec- 
tion of  Lieut.  Commander  Richardson  Clover  as  secretary,  and  the  ap- 
pointment of  Messrs.  Henry  Gannett,  Richardson  Clover,  and  H.  G-. 
Ogden  as  executive  committee. 

WORK   DONE. 

The  necessity  of  this  Board  has  already  been  amply  demonstrated. 
During  this,  its  first  year,  there  have  been  submitted  to  it  more  than 
2,000  questions  and  decisions  have  been  rendered  in  nearly  all  of  these 
cases.  Shortly  after  it  was  organized  it  was  called  upon  to  render  de- 
cisions concerning  several  hundred  names  in  Alaska,  where  the  utmost 
confusion  exists  regarding  geographic  names.  In  this  region  the  difli- 
culties  of  transliteration  of  Russian  and  Indian  names  into  English 
characters  are  complicated  by  the  fact  that  expedition  after  expedition 
visiting  this  region  has  assigned  different  sets  of  names  to  its  geo- 
graphic features.  The  difficulties  encountered  in  settling  the  questions 
submitted  relative  to  Alaskan  names  made  it  apparent  that  nothing- 
short  of  a  complete  revision  of  the  geographic  nomenclature  of  Alaska 
would  be  satisfactory.  Accordingly  the  Board,  having  decided  the 
cases  submitted  to  it,  is  now  engaged  in  making  such  a  revision,  the 
result  of  which  will  be  to  furnish  a  geographic  dictionary  of  the  Ter- 
ritory. 

The  Lighthouse  Board  and  the  Coast  and  Geodetic  Survey  have  sub- 
mitted to  this  Board  all  cases  occurring  in  the  light  lists  concerning 
which  there  is  a  dift'erence  in  usage  or  opi)ortunity  for  improvement. 
These  questions  have  been  discussed  and  decided,  and  the  decisions  go 
far  toward  settling  the  nomenclature  of  the  coast  and  lake  shores. 

The  Census  Office  has  submitted  to  the  Board  all  cases  of  difference 
of  usage  in  county  and  township  names,  and  the  names  of  corporate 
towns,  cities,  etc.,  and  all  these  questions,  numbering  fully  1,000,  have 
been  decided  after  suitable  investigation.  In  connection  with  this 
work  the  Board  has  made  certain  minor,  but  widespread  changes  in 
nomenclature,  which  are  expressed  in  princijjles .")  to  10,  inclusive.  (See 
page  8.)  As  a  part  of  this  work  the  Board  has,  after  examination  and 
the  decision  ot  all  disputed  cases,  approved  a  certain  form  of  spelling 
of  the  names  of  the  counties  of  the  United  States. 

ORIGIN   OF   AND   CHANGES   IN  NAMES. 

With  the  exception  of  the  names  of  political  subdivisions,  geographic 
names  in  this  country  have  not,  as  a  rule,  been  bestowed  by  any  fornuil 
authority.  The  names  of  natural  featur(:s,  rivers,  lakes,  mountains, 
capes,  etc.,  and  of  unchartered  bodies  of  population,  have  received  their 
names  originally  from  explorers,  survej^ors,  and  early  settlers,  and  these 
names  have  been  perpetuated  by  common  consent.  The  names  of  states, 
counties,  and  municipalities  of  all  classes,  on  the  other  hand,  have  been 
applied  either  by  legislative  enactment  or  charter,  and  therefore  possess 
some  degree  of  formal  authority. 


UNITED    STATES   BOARD    ON    GEOGRAPHIC    NAMES.  5 

DifteiPiices  of  usage  exist  to  a  large  extent,  not  only  in  the  names  of 
natural  features  and  unincorporated  plaees,  but  even  in  thoseolcMgan- 
ized  bodies  of  i)o])nlation  whose  nanu's  have  been  bestowed  by  formal 
authority.     These  dilferenees  have  originated  in  numerous  ways. 

In  the  imsettled  parts  of  the  country,  diflerent  exploring  expediticms, 
ignoring  the  work  of  their  predecessors,  have  given  new  mimes  to  fea- 
tures already  named.  As  elsewhere  noted,  this  difBculty  has  often  oc- 
curred in  Alaska,  which  has  been  visited  in  recent  years  by  numerous 
exi)editions. 

Tlie  transliteration  of  Indian  mimes  has  everywhere  been  a  fruitful 
soiu'ce  of  dirterences  in  sjx'lling,  inasmuch  as  no  two  persons  understand 
alike  or  render  into  th«'  same  English  characters  the  obscure  sounds  of 
Indian  munes. 

It  often  happens  in  the  case  of  the  larger  geographic  features,  such 
as  extended  mountain  ranges,  rivers,  etc.,  that  different  names  have 
been  applied  locall\'  in  ditferent  parts,  and  these  different  names  have 
become  well  settled  in  usage. 

It  freciuently  happens  that  railroads  adopt  names  for  their  stations 
dilferent  from  those  of  the  towns  or  villages  in  which  they  are  situated, 
and  thus  divide  the  usage.  To  a  much  greater  extent,  however,  than 
the  railroads  has  the  Post-Oftice  Department  confused  the  nomenclature 
of  the  smaller  towns  and  villages  by  attaching  names  to  the  post-offices 
not  in  accordance  with  those  in  local  usage.  Imleed,  a  list  shows  that 
there  are  in  this  country  thousands  of  cases  where  the  name  of  the 
post-oflice  does  not  conform  to  the  local  name  of  the  place  in  which  it 
is  situated.  These  differences  are  very  confusing  to  those  using  the 
postal  service,  and  it  seems  desirable  to  reduce  their  number  as  far  as 
practicable,  at  the  same  time  r<'cognizing  the  importance  of  having  but 
one  i)ost-office  of  the  same  name  in  each  state. 

By  far  the  greater  number  of  dinerences  in  usage,  however,  have 
their  origin  in  carelessness  or  ignorance  on  the  part  of  those  making 
use  of  the  names.  Such  errors  a])pearing  in  print  are  frequently  per- 
])etuated,  es])ecially  in  popular  works,  and  often  supplant  the  original 
name  in  usage. 

Originating  in  these  divergencies  of  siK'lling,  there  is  distinctly 
traceable  a  development  of  geograi)liic  nomenclature,  which  is  on  the 
whole  i)roceeding  in  a  benelicial  direction.  Its  tendency  is  t^)wards 
the  discarding  of  ol>Jectionable  names  and  tin;  adoption  of  pleasing- 
ones,  and  towards  the  simplihcation  and  abbreviation  of  names,  j^ar- 
ticnlaily  as  shown  in  the  dropi)ing  of  silent  letters.  The  Board,  recog- 
nizing this  course  of  dcvcloiniicnt,  deems  it  to  be  within  its  power  to 
guide  it,  and  e\-en  to  forestall  it,  as  far  as  its  fnture  course  may  be 
foreseen. 

Tin;  extent  to  which  geogra]>hic  names  have  been  moditied  without 
IxMng  radi<'ally  cliang<'<l  is  scarcely  appi'eciated.  A  large  proportn)n, 
])i(»])ably  a  majority  of  the  nanu's  of  natural  featur«'s  ha\e  undergone, 
changes  in  spelling  to  a  greater  or  less  extent  since  they  were  first  ap- 
jdied,  while  of  the  names  of  political  divisions,  althongh  established  by 
forimd  act,  a  consi<leiable  |)roportion  have  also  (-hanged,  and  such 
changes  have,  in  thousands  of  <'ases,  become  lirmly  establislM'd,  There- 
fore tlie  i)osition  assumed  by  some  persons,  that  weshonhl  revert  to  the 
original  foiins  of  nann-s,  would,  if  carried  out,  result  in  changing  the 
names  ot  a  large  proportion  of  our  natnral  and  artitieial  features. 


6  UNITED   STATES   BOARD    ON    GEOGRAPHIC    NAMES. 

POLICY   OF   THE   BOARD. 

Tlie  Board  is  agreed  that  iu  general  the  name  wliicli  is  in  common 
local  use  at  present  should  be  adopted.  This  is  a  broad  general  prin- 
ciple, and  summarizes  the  policy  of  the  Board,  with  the  exception  of 
certain  classes  of  cases  mentioned  below.  It  covers  cases  of  changes  or 
corruptions  of  names,  except  where  such  changes  or  corruptions  are 
considered  to  be  unworthy  of  perpetuation. 

The  difficulties  encountered  in  carrying  out  this  principle  are  found 
mainly  in  determining  what  is  local  usage,  or  the  prevailing  local  usage 
where  it  is  divided  between  different  forms.  Where  the  local  usage  is 
so  divided,  opportunity  is  afforded  for  the  selection  of  the  more  appro- 
priate and  euphonious  of  the  names  in  use. 

The  Board  considers  it  desirable  to  depart  from  local  usage  in  certain 
cases  in  order  to  effect  reforms  in  nomenclatiu'e.  Among  these  de- 
partures approved  by  the  Board  are  the  following : 

(a)  The  avoidance,  so  far  as  seems  practicable,  of  the  possessive  form 
of  names. 

{!))  The  dropping  of  the  final  "h"  in  the  termination  "burgh." 

(c)  The  abbreviation  of  "borough"  to  "boro." 

(d)  The  spelling  of  the  word  "center"  as  here  given. 

(e)  The  discontinuance  of  the  use  of  hyphens  in  connecting  parts  of 
names. 

(/)  The  omission  wherever  practicable  of  the  letters  "C.  H."  (Court 
House)  after  the  names  of  county  seats. 

{g)  The  simplification  of  names  consisting  of  more  than  one  word  by 
their  combination  into  one  word. 

(/i)  The  avoidance  of  the  use  of  diacritic  characters.' 

{i)  The  dropping  of  the  words  "city"  and  "town"  as  parts  of  names. 

All  of  these  changes  are  warranted  by  the  direction  of  development. 
The  possessive  form  of  names  is  rapidly  disappearing,  except  in  rare 
cases  where  good  reason  exists  for  its  retention.  In  most  cases  this  is 
effected  by  dropping  the  apostrophe  and  the  final  "  s. "  In  certain  cases, 
however,  usage  or  euphony  aj)pears  to  require  the  retention  of  the  final 
"  s"  when  the  apostrophe  only  is  dropped. 

Concerning  the  termination  "  burg  "  or  "  burgh,"  as  Pittsburg,  an  ex- 
tensive correspondence  has  developed  the  fact  that  in  more  than  three- 
fourths  of  the  places  having  this  termination  the  final "  h  "  is  not  in  local 
use.  The  case  of  the  termination  "  boro  "  or  "  borough, "  as  Attleboro, 
is  very  similar.  The  present  tendency  is  strongly  toward  the  substi- 
tution of  the  abbreviated  form.  The  Board  therefore  deems  it  desirable 
and  advisable  to  induce  uniformity  in  this  matter  in  the  manner  indi- 
cated. 

In  the  case  of  the  word  "  center  "  as  part  of  a  name,  as  Mansfield  Cen- 
ter, Center  Eutland,  usage  appears  to  be  about  equally  divided  between 
center  and  centre,  and  the  Board  has  adopted  the  first  of  the  above 
forms  of  the  word. 

Hyphens,  in  connecting  parts  of  names,  appear  to  be  useless,  while 
they  add  to  the  complexity  of  the  spelling. 

The  practice  of  adding  the  letters  "C.  H.,"  meaning  court-house,  to 
the  name  of  a  county  seat  is  prevalent,  especially  in  the  southern  states. 
Frequently  the  place  has  two  names,  one  being  its  charter  name,  the 
other  the  name  of  the  county  with  "  C.  H."  appended;  thus  the  county 
seat  of  Raleigh  County,  W.  Va.,  is  known  as  Beckley  and  as  Raleigh 
"C.  H." 

The  tendency  toward  simplification  is  in  noway  shown  more  decidedly

tliaii  iu  the  oombiiiation  of  tlie  several  words  j'oriiiinj;  a  name.  Tims 
"La  Fayette''  has  beeonie  well  iiij^h  universally  "Lafayette,"  "El  Do- 
rado" has  beeonie  "  lOldorado,"  etc.  The  IJoard  a])i)roves  this  tend- 
ency and  will  further  it  as  far  as  possible  without  forestalling  usage  too 
greatly. 

The  use  of  diacritic  characters  in  geogra])hic  names,  in  the  United 
States,  such  as  the  German  umlaut,  the  Sitanish  tilTle,  etc.,  is  rapidly 
disaitjiearing.  It  would  be  impossible,  even  were  it  desirable,  to  op- 
pose this  change. 

The  practice  of  adding  the  word  city  or  town,  as  lioisi'city,  Marshall- 
town,  as  a  i»art  of  the  name  is  a  useless  comi)licati()n,  growing  in  most 
cases  out  of  an  optimistic  spirit  on  tiie  ])art  of  the  promoters  of  the 
place.     It  is  often  misleading  and  almost  invariably  unnecessary. 

Outside  of  the  Tnited  States,  where  the  Department  of  State  and 
United  States  llydrograpliic  Ollice  are  chiefly  interested,  the  work  of 
the  Loard  is  directed  to  the  harmonization  of  American  usage  in  geo- 
gra]»hic  nomenclature  with  the  usage  of  the  great  mai)-making  nations — 
England,  Germany,  and  France.  The  Department  of  State,  by  reason 
of  its  diphmiatic  and  consular  functions,  is  intimately  concerned  with 
the  present  style,  change  of  names,  transfers  of  territorial  Jurisdiction, 
cession  and  ac(piisition  of  territory  by  various  governments  abroad,  and 
the  ])roi»er  forms  of  the  titular  jxditical  nomenclature  of  foreign  states 
and  nations.  The  interest  of  the  Hydrographic  Ollice  is  involved  by 
reason  of  its  i)ublicati<m  of  charts  and  sailing  directions  of  all  foreign 
waters,  to  the  etfe<'tive  use  of  which  uniformity  of  geograi»hic  nomen- 
clature is  obviously  indis])ensable.  The  forms  of  foreign  names  recom- 
mended for  adoption  are  determined  on  consultation  of  established 
usage,  the  best  authorities  upon  ethnological  and  political  history  and 
derivation,  and  current  geographic  and  political  information  from  au- 
thentic sources. 

.Many  names  in  foreign  civilized  <;ountries  present  a  jieculiar  ditfi- 
culty  aiul  api»ear  to  recpiire  tliat  a  further  exce])tioii  be  made  to  the 
general  i)rinci])le  of  following  local  usage.  This  lies  in  the  fact  that 
many  foreign  names  have  been  anglicized  and  the  anglicized  form, 
often  (piite  ditierent  from  the  local  form  (meaning  1)y  local  form  that 
in  use  by  the  best  authorities  in  the  country  having  jurisdiction),  is  well 
cstablisheil  in  usage  in  this  country. 

It  is  understood  l)y  the  Hoard  that  our  <'harts  of  the  coasts  of  foreign 
countries  using  Roman  characters,  made  for  the  use  of  our  Navy  and 
mer<-hant  marine,  generally  recjiiire  the  use  of  the  local  forms  of  these 
names  ;  while,  on  th<'  other  hand,  jxtpiilar  usage  in  this  country,  espe<'- 
ially  in  (»ur  atlases  and  t(!.\t  Ixtoks,  retpiires  tlie  anglici/.e<l  foini.  Tlu^ 
Boar<l  ])ra(*ticaily  le-aNcs  this  matter  on  tlie  same  footing  as  lieretofore, 
jiermitting  the  use  of  loc;il  forms  of  foreign  names  upon  our  charts,  and 
the  anglicized  foiiiis  upon  majts  designed  for  use  in  this  country.  It 
lioj»es,  jiowexer,  thai  tlie  w;i_\  m;i\  be  opened  in  tlie  near  future  to  the 
ado|>tion  throughout  of  tlie  loc;il  forms  of  these  names,  and  the  rejection 
of  the  anglicized  forms.  In  such  specilic  cases  as  have  been  brought 
to  \t<  attention,  it  has  decided  iiniformly  in  favor  <d"th«'  loeiil  form. 

Most  oftlu'  nations  of  I<hii(»pe,  eillier  thiough  national  l)o;ii(ls  or  g«'o 
gra])hi<;  socit-ties,  are  engaged  in  the  regulation  of  the  ortliograph>  of 
geograj)hic  names.  Their  attention  has  been  ]>arliculaily  directed 
toward  prcfilucing  uniformity  in  the  transliteration  of  aboriginal  names 
written  in  characters  other  than  Koiinin,  These  nations  inive  practi- 
cally agreed  up(»n  a  system  of  ti  ;uisIiter;itioii,  which,  with  one  or  two 
exc«'|)tions,  lijis  been  adopted  l»y  this  Pxciid,  thus  coming  int<t  practical 
agreement  in  this  matter  with  the  icst  of  the  civilized  world. 


8  UNITED    STATES    BOARD    ON    GEOGRAPHIC    NAMES. 

The  matters  above  discussed  have  been  formulated  as  principles  for 
the  guidance  of  the  Board  in  deciding  specific  cases.  It  must  be  under- 
stood that  these  are  not  designed  as  rules,  but  as  guiding  jyrinciples, 
from  which  the  Board  reserves  liberty  to  depart  whenever,  in  its  judg- 
ment, it  deems  it  advisable  to  do  so. 

PRINCIPLES  FOtt  SPECIAL   APPLICATION  IN   THE   UNITED   STATES. 

1.  That  spelling  and  pronunciation  which  is  sanctioned  by  local 
usage  should  in  general  be  adopted. 

2.  Where  names  have  been  changed  or  corrupted,  and  such  changes 
or  corruptions  have  become  established  by  local  usage,  it  is  not  in 
general  advisable  to  attemx)t  to  restore  the  original  form. 

3.  In  cases  where  what  was  evidently  originally  the  same  word  ap- 
jjears  with  various  spellings  sanctioned  by  lo(;al  usage,  when  applied  to 
different  features,  these  various  spellings  should  be  regarded  as  in  effect 
different  names,  and  as  a  rule  it  is  inadvisable  to  attempt  to  produce 
uniformity. 

•4,  Where  a  choice  is  offered  between  two  or  more  names  for  the  same 
place  or  locality,  all  sanctioned  by  local  usage,  that  which  is  most 
appropriate  and  euphonious  should  be  adoj)ted. 

5.  The  possessive  form  should  be  avoided  whenever  it  can  be  done 
without  destroying  the  euphony  of  the  name,  or  changing  its  descrip- 
tive application. 

6.  In  names  ending  in  "burgh,"  the  final  "h"  should  be  dropped. 

7.  Names  ending  in  "borough"  should  be  abbreviated  to  "boro." 

8.  The  word  "center,"  as  a  part  of  a  name,  should  be  spelled  as  above 
and  not  "centre." 

9.  The  use  of  hyphens  in  connecting  parts  of  names  should  be  dis- 
continued. 

10.  The  letters  "C.  H."  (Court  House)  appended  to  the  names  of 
county  seats  should  be  omitted. 

11.  In  the  case  of  names  consisting  of  more  than  one  word,  it  is 
desirable  to  combine  them  into  one  word. 

12.  It  is  desirable  to  avoid  the  use  of  diacritic  characters. 

13.  It  is  desirable  to  avoid  the  use  of  the  words  city  and  town,  as 
parts  of  names. 

PRINCIPLES  FOR  SPECIAL  APPLICATION  IN  FOREIGN  COUNTRIES. 

14.  Geographic  names  in  countries  that  use  Eoman  characters  should 
be  rendered  in  the  form  adopted  by  the  country  having  jurisdiction, 
except  where  there  are  English  equivalents  already  fixed  by  usage. 
In  cases  where  the  English  equivalent  is  so  different  from  the  local  form 
that  the  identity  of  the  latter  with  the  former  might  not  be  recognized, 
both  forms  may  be  given. 

15.  The  spelling  of  geographic  names  that  require  transliteration 
into  Eoman  characters  should  represent  the  principal  sounds  of  the 
word  as  pronounced  in  the  native  tongue,  in  accordance  with  the  sounds 
of  the  letters  in  the  following  system : 

An  approximation  only  to  the  true  sound  is  aimed  at  in  this  system. 
The  vowels  are  to  be  pronounced  as  in  Italian  and  on  the  continent  of 
Europe  generally,  and  the  consonants  as  in  English.

tutioii,  and  at  its  expense,  Bulletin  No.  1  has  been  i)ublislied,  and  an 
edition  of  7,000  copies  distributed.  The  Coast  and  Geodetic  Survey 
has  printed  its  second  bulletin  Tvith  an  edition  of  7,500  copies,  and  the 
Light-House  Board  has  through  the  Treasury  Department  printed  the 
third  bulletin,  with  an  edition  of  8,000.  This  method  of  publication  is 
obviously  unsatisfactory.  It  is  important  that  the  decisions  of  the 
Board  be  promptly  brought  to  the  attention  of  the  officers  of  the  Gov- 
ernment, and  this  can  be  done  only  by  their  prompt  publication  and 
wide  circulation.  Judging  from  past  experience,  it  appears  that  10,000 
copies  of  each  of  its  bulletins  will  be  required  to  meet  the  demands  of 
the  Government  Departments. 

The  general  public,  and  especially  the  newspapers,  the  educators  and 
the  educational  publishers  of  the  country  have  manifested  great  interest 
in  the  work  of  the  Board.  Its  decisions  have  been  generally  accepted 
by  geographers,  i)ublishers,  and  educators,  and  it  seems  on  all  accounts 
desirable  that  these  classes  should  be  informed  promptly  and  fiilly  of 
the  decisions.  To  suf>ply  them  Avould  require  an  equal  number,  and 
the  Board  asks  that  recommendation  be  made  to  Congress  that  proper 
provision  be  made  for  printing  and  distributing  these  bulletins. 

There  are  submitted  herewith,  as  Appendix  A,  a  list  of  the  decisions 
of  the  Board,  and  as  Appendix  B,  a  list  of  the  counties  of  the  United

This    mountain    has    been    locally  |

Rogers,  in  honor  of  Prof.   W.    B.  ; 
Rogers,  formerly  the  State  geolo-  :

the  study  of  the  gcoIo<j;y   of  that 
State.     This  decision   is  based  on 
the  grouuds,  first,  that  the  name 
Elliott  Knob  is  well   established; 
and.  second,  that  a  mountain  peak 
in  Virginia  near  the  North  Caro-

In  1609  Admiral  Sir  George  Somers,  R.

uninhabited.  He  was  wrecked  and  died 
there,  and  the  islands  were  called  after 
him  by  his  companions,  "Somers  Is- 
lands." Bermuda  has  been  adopted  as 
the  British  official  usage,  and  is  the  pop-

the  Panama  Railroad  Company,  and 
named  for  William  H.  Aspinwall,  one  of 
the  railroad  company's  principal  share- 
holders, and  afterwards  president  of  the 
Paciiic  Mail  Steamship  Company.  The 
official  name  given  the  city  by  the  Co- 
lombian Government  is  Colon,  the  Span- 
ish form  of  the  patronymic  of  Christo- 
pher Columbus.  Designated  as  Aspin- 
wall by  the  United  States  Government 
from  the  year  of  its  foundation  until  1882, 
The  Colombian  name  was  adopted  in  the 
latter  year  and  has  since  appeared  in  the 
printed  diplomatic  and  consular  list  of 
the  Department  of  State  as  "  Colon  (As- 
pinwall)," "Colon"  being  recognized 
as  the  proper  form,  and  "Aspinwall" 
added  in  parentheses  merely  for  the 
purpose  of  distinguishing  the  place  for 
the  guidance  of  persons  unfamiliar  with 
the  Colombian  name.

Haiti  Island.     West  Indies. 

Haiti  was  the  native  name  of  the  is- 
land when  Columbus  landed  on  De- 
cember 6,  1492,  and  called  it  Espag- 
nola,  which  was  latinized  into  His- 
paniola.  The  French  colony  which 
gained  control  of  a  part  of  the  is- 
land was  called  Saint  Domiugue, 
and  in  1795,  when  France  acquired 
the  title  to  the  entire  island  by 
treaty  with  Spain,  it  was  called 
Saint  Domingue,  but  when  the 
French  were  driven  out,  and  inde- 
pendence declared  in  1804,  the  ab- 
original name  Haiti  was  revived  by 
the  negroes.  Shortly  after  this  the 
Spaniards  reestablished  themselves 
in  the  eastern  part  of  tlio  island,  re- 
taining the  French  name  modified 
to  Santo  Domingo,  but  in  1821  lost 
control,  and  from  1822  to  184.3  the 
whole  island  was  under  one  gov- 
ernment as  the  Republic  of  Haiti. 
In  1844  the  eastern  portion  of  the  is- 
land again  asserted  its  independ- 
ence of  Haiti  and  estaldished  the 
Doniinrcan  Republic,  which  re- 
mains to  the  present  day. 
Thus  to-day  the  island  of  Haiti,  whicli 
seems  to  be  the  proper  name,  ron- 
sists  of  two  countries,  Haiti  on  the 
west  end  and  Santo  Doniingo  on  the 
oast  end,  the  dividing  line  being 
drawn  from  the  river  PiMlernah-son 
the  south  to  tlie  river  Massacre  on 
the  north  coast.
